Better Spotlight in OS X El Capitan

Better Spotlight in OS X El Capitan

Spotlight is a built-in search tool on OS X that lets users search for information on the Mac and in OS X El Capitan it gets a major upgrade.

In addition to searching your Mac and some web connected searches like in OS X Yosemite, the Spotlight tool in El Capitan can show you weather, sports scores, schedules and other information that you typically see in Siri results on iPhone.

Users can also search in natural language to find the right files and emails without sorting through long lists. The window also resizes so that you can see more information as you need it.

    Josh, great review and I liked how you cautioned us to wait a little before upgrading. On slide 7/10 there is a transposition of 2 letters in”Appel”.

    Hi, thanks for your article, very informative.
    I installed El Capitan yesterday but found out that the Mac Book mid 2009 won’t support three finger gestures, nor the two finger swipe gestures introduced in mail. :-(
    Haven’t found that mentioned anywhere.

    “Great, just an other update” was my first thought. But considering this one hasn’t made my system run any slower (on the contrary, it feels faster), I truly feel “updated.”

      John, did you ever get it figured out? I have no issues with Apple Mail, so just wondering if I can help in some way. You have a fantastic computer and any little issue can be easily solved in my experience.

      The download will pop up automatically in App store. There is a simple “upgrade” button….and that´s that! Totally free……..Remember the last free upgrades from Microsoft? lol….me neither…..
